  • Berrien County Directory 2017 - 2018 Galien River County Park
    BERRIEN COUNTY DIRECTORY 2017 - 2018 GALIEN RIVER COUNTY PARK The Galien River County Park in New Buffalo Township, was acquired by Berrien County in 2001 with the assistance of a Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund Grant. The 86 acre park includes a mix of upland and wetland habitats along the Galien River. The wetland area is particularly significant in that it is a part of the larger “New Buffalo Marsh”, a Great Lakes marsh that formed along the Galien River just upstream from the river’s mouth at Lake Michigan. Major improvements were completed to the park in 2014, with the assistance from the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund, the Pokagon Fund and Berrien County. The Berrien County Parks Commission included a “Canopy Walkway” that leads through the treetops to a 60’ high “Marsh Overlook Tower” and a 600’ long “Marsh Boardwalk” that leads to a “River Viewing and Fishing Platform” on the edge of the Galien River. Both of these major features are accessible via hard surfaced, and barrier free hiking trails. The park is located on Red Arrow Highway in New Buffalo Township, just north of the intersection with US-12. The entrance is located directly across the road from the New Buffalo Township Hall. The park address is 17424 Red Arrow Highway, New Buffalo, Michigan. BERRIEN COUNTY PARKS Berrien County Parks provide our community with a variety of natural, educational and leisure activities. The Parks and facilities have something for everyone.

We experienced change at the beginning of the year with the departure of one justice and the arrival of another and change at the end of the year, as we bid farewell to two justices and prepared for the arrival of two newly elected justices. Despite the changes, the excellent work of our staff continued in every facet of the Court. We continued educating thousands of Ohioans through our adult guardian and guardian ad litem education programs. And we continued expanding our training opportunities and subject matter to the judges, court personnel, and members of justice-related organizations in Ohio. Seminars, conferences, webinars, and roundtables were aplenty, on numerous well-timed and important topics. We also concentrated our efforts on clarifying and informing the judiciary and public alike on the timely topics of bail and bonds, court record sealing, and grand juries. The Court salutes the hundreds of volunteers who dedicated their time and expertise to the operation and improvement not only of our Court, but of the hundreds of courts throughout the state in 2018. We simply could not operate efficiently or provide the timely direction and level of service to the courts of Ohio without the visiting appellate judges who hear Supreme Court cases on assignment, or the hundreds of professionals who serve on the Court’s boards, commissions, advisory committees, and task forces.
